1.a.) Sara’s income is expressed as the quantity of goods that she can afford to buy. Expressed in terms of cola, Sara’s real income is 4 cans of cola. We divide the money income $12 by the price of cola $3.

$12 / $3 = 4

b.) The same here: Expressed in terms of popcorn, Sara’s real income is 4 bags of popcorn. Again, we divide the money income $12 by the price of popcorn $3.

$12 / $3 = 4

c.) A relative price is the price of one good divided by the price of another good. The price of popcorn is $3 per bag and the price of cola is $3 per can. To find the relative price, we divide the price of cola $3 by the price of popcorn $3. So the relative price of cola is 1 bag of popcorn per can of cola.

$3 / $3 = 1

d.) Sara must give up 1 bag of cola because in this case we see that a can of cola is equal to a bag of popcorn.

e.) The budget equation starts with:

Expenditure = Income

Expenditure is equal to the sum of the price of each good multiplied by the quantity bought. - the price of popcorn= PP
- the quantity of popcorn= QP
- the price of cola= PC
- the quantity of cola= QC
- Sara’s budget equation is:PPxQP + PCxQC = Y, or we use the prices of goods. We get:$3QP + $3QC = $12 To find the relationship between these quantities we divide both sides of the equation by $3, and we get:QP + QC = 4

Now, we will subtract QC from both sides to obtain:QP = 4 – QC(that is the equation for Sara’s budget line).

...ELECTROPHILIC ADDITION
PURPOSE
The purpose of this lab is to learn how to synthesize 2-methyl-2-butene into 2-bromo-2-methylbutane using addition of hydrogen bromide.
THEORY
Chemical Compound Molecular Formula Molecular Weight Boiling Point Melting Point Density
Amylene CH3CH=C(CH3)2 70.13 g/mol 36 oC -134 oC 0.662 g/ml
Hydrobromic Acid HBr 80.91 g/mol 126 oC -11 oC 1.490 g/ml
2-Bromo-2-MethylButane C5H11Br 151.05 g/mol 107 oC 1.18 g/ml
Sodium bicarbonate NaHCO3 84.007 g/mol Decomposes at melting point unknown 2.159 g/ml
Diethyl ether C2H5OC2H5 74.12 g/mol 34.6 °C &#8722;116.3 °C 0.7134 g/ml
In this lab we use electrophilic addition of a hydrogen halide to an alkene to make 2-bromo-2-methylbutane. Electrophilic addition is an addition reaction where a pi bond is removed to create two new covalent bonds, Y-Z + C=C &#8594; Y-C-C-Z. Electrophilic addictions can also be the reverse of dehydrohalogenation. Dehydrohalogenation is when a double bond is formed between the &#945;- and &#946;-carbon. In this lab the addition of hydrogen bromide produces a more substituted alkyl halide with respect to Markovnikov's rule where the Bromine atom attaches to the more substituted carbon.**

...Addiction as Choice?
Andria Burgess
Introduction to Psychology
Addiction as Choice?
Substance abuse is a pervasive problem throughout the United States. It affects all populations, socioeconomic groups, ages, and races. Within the community of substance abuse treatment providers, there is an ongoing debate on whether addiction is a disease, or whether individuals who abuse substances choose to engage in the behavior. There is evidence to support both positions. This paper will examine the controversy surrounding the issue of whether addiction is a choice, and examine the arguments presented by both sides.
Addiction is a Choice
Many individuals view substance abuse and drug addiction as a choice. These individuals argue that addicts choose to put the addictive substance in their body, therefore triggering the subsequent chemical reaction that occurs (Schaler, 2000) Individuals who argue that addiction is a choice, do not dispute that there is a physiological reaction when the drug or alcohol enters the body, and that long-term use alters the addicts brain chemistry. What they take issue with is the disease concept of addiction. Proponents of the choice theory argue that by labeling addiction as a disease, personal responsibility is removed from the equation, thereby allowing the addict to justify continued use as they are "unable" to stop (Schaler, 2000).
Experience with addiction treatment confirms the choice theory, according to proponents of this...

...﻿The Coca Cola Company- Branding Strategies
Coca-Cola is one of the most recognizable brands around the globe. The history of Coca-Cola began over a century ago since 1886. Today Coca-Cola sells products in over 300 countries world-wide, and has over 3,000 different beverages. The brand is familiar to people all around the world, and is available in many different varieties. The company takes pride in the development of unique marketing strategies, which have allowed growth and access to various places throughout the world. Their extremely recognizable branding is one of Coca-Cola's greatest strengths and the simplicity of its bottling is a part of a great marketing strategy (Spring,2002). Coca-Cola makes money primarily from selling their very famous cola, allowing many across the globe to share the experience.
Coca-Cola’s desired outcome from their marketing communications program is to move from creative excellence to content excellence. The purpose of their content excellence is to create ideas so contagious it cannot be controlled in terms of business objectives, brands and consumer interest, all linked together. They developed a conversation model that begin with brand stories that create the linked ideas which provoke conversations that need us to act and react to 365 days a year.
Coca Cola now intend to double the size of their business by observing a distribution...

...In this experiment, the stereochemistry of 2,3-dibromo-3-phenylpropanoic was found to determine syn or anti addition of bromines. The melting point was 199-203°C and the NMR J values angle is at 167 which both prove the erythro-2,3-dibromo-3-phenylpropanoic.
Determination of the Stereochemistry of 2,3-dibromo-3-phenylpropanoic acid.
Introduction
The purpose of this experiment was to determine the mechanism of the reaction of trans-cinnamic acid with theaddition of bromines to 2,3-dibromo-3-phenylpropanoic acid. An addition of bromine was added to trans-cinnamic acid and it is necessary to determine whether the intermediates were syn or anti addition or a mixture of them both to find the stereochemistry of the final product. The final product could be erythro-2,3-dibromo-3-phenylpropanoic, threo-2,3-dibromo-3-phenylpropanoic, or a mixture of them both. The erythro-dibromide would occur if the reaction went primarily by syn addition of the bromides and the threo-dibromide would be the result if the reaction went primarily by anti addition.
To confirm results and obtain more information, NMR will be used to help determine the final stereochemistry of the product and structural properties.
Anti addition is the predicted favorable outcome for this particular reaction of bromine addition to cyclopentene because a cyclic bromonium ion is formed that is...

"concentrate"), a sweetener, and carbonated water. The production and distribution of CSDs involved four major participants: concentrate producers, bottlers, retail drannels, and suppliers.6 Concentrate Producers The concentrate producer blended raw material ingredients, packaged the mixfure

canisters, and shipped those containers to the bottler. To make concentrate for diet CSDs, concentrate makers often added artificial sweetener; with regular CSDs, bottlers added sugar or high-fructose corn syrup themselves. The concentrate manufacturing process involved little capital investment in machinery, overhead, or labor. A typical concentrate mariu{acturing plant cost about $25 million to $50 million to build, and one plant could serve the entire United States.T

Introduction: At Apollo tyres with its new policy of “Agile6*16”, which says
reaching a limit of 6 billion by 2016, it has made it mandatory to value stream their
processes and realign the necessary ones towards lean principles.The primary
objective of this project was to chart the various processes at Apollo tyres and then
categorize them under the various tools of value stream map like value contribution
scale and directions of material/information flow, and thereby create an improvised
future state of value stream wherein the value addition is enhanced.
